Post by Ross, Bob » Sat Jun 01, 2024 10:13 am

With my edging trainer dying, I'm considering this as my new hobby.

What's your experience or opinion about this craft?

You just need to believe in yourself, keep practising, you will learn to know your body with repetition. You will know what works eventually.

There was this one time I poisoned the neighbour's cat. But I was a bit emotional at the time.

Ffs, honest I haven't drank regularly since 2012 except a drink at Xmas or a family celebration maybe and even then I don't bother usually.

Drink wasn't good for me and I never enjoyed it anyway mate.

No just felt like shit whenever I woke up and couldn't remember much of the night before most of the time, wasn't worth it.

I was a silly drunk apparently.

This is a productive thread.

One could consider it to be slightly off-topic, but productive it is.
